Is an Emergency Number at Your Finger Tips for Home Storm Damage? On the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, it s not a matter of "if" an accident is going to happen, it s a matter of "when". Therefore, countless hours go into training for emergency situations. The same holds true for your home and bad weather. Chances are your property will someday be affected by a hurricane, tornado, freak snow storm, or violent storm that produces flying debris, downed trees, or large falling tree limbs. Will you be ready when that emergency hits? A scenario that happens frequently in southeastern Virginia goes like this -- a fallen tree damages a home s roof, fencing and several windows. The homeowner searches frantically for a roofing company, a tree removal company, a fencing company or handyman, and a window company. Much time and energy is put into finding these folks, and no research is conducted amidst the mayhem. Conducting no research is like putting gas on an unwanted fire. Things

But while most governments allocate money for structure and roofing upgrades, many businesses are slow to do so. It is the CEO s job to squeeze every dollar out of every asset in order to maximize profits. But when that asset is your commercial building s roof, and a failure of that asset can cost way more in damages and time than the malfunction of a piece of machinery, you need to be cautious of how much squeezing you put on its performance. Most commercial roofs last for decades. The only way you’ll know the status of your commercial roof is by inspecting it at least twice a year, in the spring and fall. This is the best time to inspect because foot traffic on

Who Is Responsible When Your Tree Falls on Your Neighbor s Property? One of the quickest ways to cause tensions among neighbors is when your tree falls on your neighbor s house, car or property; or your neighbor s tree falls on your house, car or property. A lot of forethought does not go into this, as everyone likes trees and they make the neighborhood beautiful. However, there is always a possibility during any story that your tree or a large tree limb could fall on your neighbor’s house or car. The same holds true for your neighbor’s tree falling onto your property or house. The best way to prepare for this possible scenario is by knowing the fallen tree laws in Virginia. It would also be helpful to talk with your neighbors so they understand who is responsible when trees fall on homes during storms. In a nutshell, according to Commonwealth of Virginia, the following laws apply: Who is responsible when your neighbor s tree falls on your house, car or property? Should my neighb

How to Choose a Good Roofing Contractor Hiring a roofing contractor for a new roof or a roof repair can be daunting. So many companies, so many chances of choosing one that doesn t deliver what they promise. This is one part of your home that you need done right. To remove the guess work and salesmanship out of your decision, here are a few important questions to ask the roofing companies you call. Are you a Classified Virginia Contractor? Your state should have an agency like the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation that can verify a roofing company’s contractor status, as well as a Complaint History if one exists. Are you a member of the Better Business Bureau? If the roofing contractor is a member of the BBB, go online and check the BBB s rating of the company, and also to learn if they have any legal complaints against them. Are you insured? If so by who? You don’t want to do business with a fly-by-night roofing company that will leave you high and dry if so

Simple Ways to Inspect Your Roof and Avoid Major Repairs If you want to know the main reason for home or business roof repairs, ask the people who deal with roofs day after day, year afteryear - ask the roofing contractors. They willtellyou the number one reason for roof repairs is not damage from a major weather event. According to roofing companies, the number one reason for roof repairs is the fact that home and business owners simply ignore their roof until there’s a major problem with major expenses. You should treatyour roof like you treatyour car. You (or someone) changes the oil,the fluids, the filters, the tires and so on, so your car serve you well. Waiting for the engine to blow or the transmission to quit,then fix it,is way more expensive than a littlepreventative maintenance. Your roof is similar to your car. Every part of your home or business receives wear and tear every day – your carpets, doors, faucets, toilets, crawlspaces, attic and roof. But because you use
